In 21st July 1914, gendarmery which was divided into stationary and mobile units was organised as different units for the different duties during the World War First. General Staff of Ottoman Empire, who was in a difficult situation, tried to have an armed force with the name of gendarmery because Armistice of Montrose required that Ottoman armed force had to be discharged. However, representatives of Allied Powers wanted to arrange or take over the present germandery. The provisions of the Treaty of Sevres already indicated it. The government, which totally depended on the gendarmery, bound the gendarmery to Ministry of Interior via an enactment dated 15th March 1919. After Turkish Grand National Assembly was founded, the government ofTurkish Grand National Assembly founded the General Gendermary Commandery within the body of Ministry of National Defence to ensure interior security.

GNA Government of Turkey that wanted to manage internal control on its own united General Gendermary Commandery and General Directorate of Military Police in 12th December 1920 and founded General Directorate of Military Police under Ministry of Interior.
